Made some progress on the Great Decluttering.

Got my paperwork sorted out to convert the Side Gig into a Proper Consultancy, now that I have confirmed the backing of my boss.

Congrats on the progress on the Great Decluttering. I feel like I'm never going to get done.

[nanila]

Thanks. I feel the same. It seems like the Stuff reproduces in the cupboards and drawers during the night. /o\

[siberian_skys]

Tribbles :-)

Didn't accomplish much today, but I did manage to get my hair cut, and did some research online and did some talking on the phone.

[readera]

Yay for hair cut !

[siberian_skys]

It's so much better than it was, but it's been bugging me since last night, so I'm going to have to call them tomorrow and get it fixed. I'm apparently not meant to have asymmetrical hair. It's not what I asked for, but I liked how it looked so I thought I'd keep it. It's so annoying. We didn't communicate very well,. At least it's not a crappy haircut. I just don't like it.

[readera]

I have had similar experiances with hair cuts. Hope you were able to get it fixed.

[siberian_skys]

Not yet. I am so frustrated. I'm going to call them back. I don't think I should have to live with it for another day.

[readera]

Hopefully you can get it fixed quickly. *fingers crossed

[siberian_skys]

Later this morning, thankfully.

[readera]

Yay! Glad to hear it.

I like it now, though it was like pulling teeth to get what I wanted. She had no listening skills. I was blaming myself over the weekend, but now I know for sure. I was very clear with her today and she still didn't get the top right, but it's close enough. It's a lot closer to what I had in mind. I was hoping to get someone else to fix it, but I got the same woman. It's not that she doesn't know how to cut, she does. I keep wondering if she just didn't want to do what I wanted. It is my head. It didn't help that I walked in and it was crowded and most of the employees had stopped wearing masks as had most of the clients. Our idiot governor announced on Friday with very little guidance that we were going to Stage 3. I can't help to think that he didn't mean it was okay to have a service with no safety procedures in effect. Our cases have been slowly going down, but we aren't near in the clear. The police had to shut down a party over the weekend that had 1000 people. I am so tired of the stupid.

Sorry to hear it was a pain to gst fixed. Most of my neighbors don't wear masks. Its really frustrating.

[siberian_skys]

I don't know what it's going to take for people to figure out that this pandemic is serious.

[readera]

I'm not sure. Hopefully someone figures it out soon.

Drove my nephew to his friend's house.

Had a long venting session on Discord with a dear friend about things causing me stress and worry. It helped tremendously.

[readera]

Yay for venting! Glad it helped you 😀

Hung out again for most of the day w/neighbor across the hall. Took 2 walks: one with him and one with my tutor. Tried to re-configure the wi-fi up here so that my Amazon Echo would work again, but was unsuccessful. Will try again, or wait until re-arrangement is finished.

[readera]

Yay for hanging out with neighbor!

Napped.

Started loaded baked potato soup, and did the finishing touches after housemate did the middle bits. It was delicious. I saved some time by starting with (unflavored) instant mashed potatoes, and frozen tri-cut potatoes that I roasted, instead of starting from whole and cooking down into partial mush.

Naps are good.

Walloped a bush back into shape, got the lawn mowed, and loaded the dishwasher and set it to run.

Excellent householding there!
